The night of July 15 was the longest night of Turkish Democracy. In the course of this night, members of Fetullah Gülen Terrorist Organization (FETÖ), which ha…s been infiltrating the Turkish Armed Forces for about four decades, tried to stage a military coup to overthrow the democratically elected government and suspend the constitution of the Turkish Republic. During this night, the Gülen coup attempt was defeated mainly by the peaceful civil disobedience of Turkish citizens from all segments of Turkish society. Turkish people realized that the democratic order of their country was in danger of being abolished by the followers of a false messiah. They realized that this was also an assault on their freedom, independence, and the future of their children. That's why they were ready to sacrifice their lives -a sacrifice that they made. The tally of the casualties was shocking: FETÖ members massacred 240 people, of which 173 were civilians and injured another 2,195 civilians. The aim of this book is to overcome the prejudice and the misunderstanding against Turkey by analysing the events that took place on that night and the developments that followed.

Soft cover. Condition: New. Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. 176 p. International and domestic actors questioning freedom of the press in Turkey do not adopt a comprehensive approach, instead confining the issue to the more attractive and popular sphere of daily political debates. The biggest obstacles before freed…om of the press in Turkey, however, do not stem from the political will but from nonpolitical power circles. The issue is exacerbated by the fact that violations of press freedom, caused by power instruments outside of politics, are cynical and difficult to resist in nature. This book aims to discuss the freedom of the press in Turkey within a new context and propose an alternative to the instrumental yet widespread attitude adopted solely for political goals. At the same time, the authors intend to reveal the structural problems that freedom of the press experiences in Turkey, shed light on specific areas of restrictions on the press today, and expose the power centers behind these restrictions. The crux of this study is to identify and draw attention to the problems journalists, who are devoted to the enlightenment of society, experience, and to offer guidance for protecting the freedom of the press in the future. The study is based on in-depth interviews with prominent journalists and international reports on the subject.

Soft cover. Condition: New. Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (28 x 18 cm). In English. 48 p.Türk din musikisi. A road map for the education of Syrians In Turkey. The reflections of the humanitarian crisis in Syria since 2011 have been experienced all over the world in different ways. In this sense, Turkey¿s experience has gathered a lot of…attention as well. Thanks to its open door policy, Turkey has become the country hosting the highest number of refugees in the world and has created a living space for millions of Syrians. According to official figures, Turkey hosts 2,724,927 Syrians and thus takes the burden of the humanitarian crisis on its shoulders. Each Syrian is important for Turkey, as is their adaptation to Turkish public life. The most crucial elements of orientation towards public life are education and employment. With respect to employment, Turkey has taken considerable steps. In addition to this, the education of Syrian children requires a road map so as not to create lost generations for the future of Turkey and Syria. The NGOs in Turkey have taken great responsibility for the education of Syrians and play an important role in offering advice for the Ministry of National Education¿s (MEB) road map. However, only one in three Syrian children is schooled ¿ this is evidence that the NGO-based short-term solutions are not enough and long-term public policymaking is required. From the first years of the crisis in Syria, the SETA Foundation has been supporting the policymaking process especially in terms of educating Syrians, aiding their legal status and their adaptation to public life. The SETA Foundation is especially sensitive on the issue of Syrians¿ education and in this study aims to contribute to developing a road map on Syrians¿ education and to work against the creation of lost generations.

Soft cover. Condition: New. Paperback. Large roy. 8vo. In English. 272 p. July 15 Coup attempt In Turkey. Context, causes and consequences. Turkey's democracy has historically suffered from continuous coup attempts which aimed directly to overthrow the elected governments of the time. At least four successful coups have occurred… in a period of 50 years and in July 15 2016 the latest attempt was executed. However, unlike the previous coups, the plotters failed to achieve their goals on the night of July 15, resulting in a triumph for Turkish unity and democracy. As such, the July 15 coup attempt can be considered as an example per se of people power which is worth studying. July 15 Coup Attempt in Turkey: Context, Causes and Consequences presents different perspectives focusing on political, economic, sociological and psychological aspects of the factors leading up to, the events during and aftermath of this historic date. Academicians and journalists have aimed to examine in detail the coup attempt and to present an accurate account of July 15. History and current events are analyzed through an academic perspective, creating a fuller picture to better understand this most recent attempt to compromise the will of the Turkish people.

Condition: New. This book elaborates on the nationalization of the Turkish defense industry since the invasion of Iraq in 2003. The objective of the book is to understand the recent increasing trend of nationalization of the defense industry in Turkey. The book begins by analyzing the regional conjuncture and the lack of trust i…n allies in order to show how these influence Turkey's investments in the sector. Then, it moves on to explain the country's domestic structure which enables and inspires its politicians to attribute greater importance to industrial self-reliance in defense. Lastly, it focuses on the political economy of the defense industry and the considerable amount of revenue the sector generates at the global level and for Turkey. The book concludes that focusing on developing modern technology and on the production of specific arms of defense is beneficial for Turkey's future and position in the international market.

Condition: New. Climate change has become one of the primary drivers of human migration, with many observers predicting that its impact will outweigh all other man-made factors in the near future. While some natural disasters, such as earthquakes and floods, result in immediate and direct human displacements, climate change-rela…ted emergencies, such as drought and erosion, result in slow but steady migrations. As climate change increases the likelihood of natural disasters, the consequences will have far-reaching implications for local and cross-border displacements, as well as international policymaking. The edited volume combines two broad objectives. First, it intends to present an alarming and innovative perspective on climate change through case studies from around the world. Second, it will provide a new perspective on migration from the perspective of global and regional dynamics that force people to migrate. With a special emphasis on Türkiye's climate change policy and its organizational capacity to meet new challenges that have emerged, especially after its successful response to the massive influx of Syrian refugees, the edited volume overall aims to inspire international organizations and governments to find long-term solutions to this dynamic process.

Condition: New. This book will answer the key research question of which characteristics (changing or enduring) of the Syrian War caused Turkey and Russia to oscillate between the extremes of war and alliance. By focusing on these characteristics in Syria, commonly accepted as a proxy war but with subtle changes to the definitio…n due to its context, this book shows how the changing character of war influences state behaviors and relations both between and among them. Addressing the underlying question of what makes states cooperate while carrying on and/or being forced to accommodate diverging strategic ends, conditioned by unbalanced military power and laden with contentious agendas, uncovers the embedded controversies of the process that facilitates this oscillation. Finally, to reveal the broader implications, highlight the relevance, and to make a contribution to the literature based on the research, this study addresses the overarching question of how proxy wars alter interstate relations and relations within alliances.

Condition: New. Emerging trends in the European political context, including the rise of nativist nationalism and the emergence of hostile public discourses on immigration, have brought ideas traditionally attributed to the far-right into mainstream discussion, in the process popularising and in some cases 'normalising' them in…the eyes of particular audiences. Especially since the turn of the new millennium, the discussion on the dynamics of, and threats from, violent radicalisation has received considerable fresh attention since a series of recent terrorist attacks testified to its highly disruptive and destructive potential. Taken together with the appreciable rise in instances of hate speech and in violent incidents against vulnerable groups (Muslim, Jewish, Roma communities; immigrants and refugees, etc.), it is now feared that we may be witnessing a much broader and profound 'reverse wave' towards more intolerance, exclusion, and normalisation of violent extremism in contemporary societies.

Tam yapilandirilmis bir anket formunun kullanildigi arastirma, tecrubeli anketorler tarafindan yuz yuze gorusme yontemiyle yapilmistir. Arastirmanin yapilis bicimiyle ilgili onemli bir nokta da, "Demokratik Acilim"in gundeme gelisinin hemen sonrasinda, 7-15 Agustos 2009 tarihleri arasinda bir hafta gibi rekor bir surede tamamlanmis olmasidir. Anket uygulamasinin %10'u uygulama sonrasinda telefonla denetlenmistir. Katilimcilarin etnik koken bilgilerinin de yer aldigi raporda, genel dagilimlarin yani sira Turk ve Kurtlere gore dagilimin nasil farklilastigi ayrintili bicimde gosterilmistir. Arastirmanin ikinci bolumunde acik uclu olarak sorulan "Turkiye'nin en onemli sorunu nedir?" sorusuna verilen cevaplarda, issizlik ve ekonomi basliklari gundemin ilk siralarini isgal ederken, Kurt meselesi ve alakali sorunlara verilen onemin gundelik siyasal atmosferle sinirlandirilamayacak bir bicimde arttigi gorulmektedir. Bunu, "Sizce, Kurt sorunu Turkiye'nin onemli bir sorunu mudur?" sorusuna, katilimcilarin %55,3'unun "evet" cevabi vermesinden de cikarmak mumkundur. Bu soruya verilen cevaplarda, Kurt sorununun varligina inanan Turklerin orani %51,2 iken, Kurtlerde bu oran %75,8'e cikmaktadir. Bu soru, arastirmanin ucuncu bolumundeki sorularla birlikte degerlendirildiginde, Kurt sorununun varligina inanmayan %39,3'luk kesimin, sorunun varligindan ote isimlendirilisini reddettigi anlasilmaktadir. Bu katilimcilar sorunu, Kurt sorunu olarak degil, teror sorunu olarak adlandirmaktadirlar. Bu cercevede, arastirmanin butunune bakildiginda, Kurt meselesinin toplum tarafindan Turkiye'nin en onemli siyasal sorunu olarak algilandigi ortaya cikmaktadir. Bu durum, Turkiye'nin bir Kurt meselesi oldugunu inkar etme siyasetinin surdurulemeyecegini ve toplumun siyasal iletisim dili dogru kurgulanmis bir cozum iradesine destek vermeye hazir oldugunu gostermektedir. Ucuncu bolumdeki sorulara bakildiginda, toplumun cogunlugunun Kurt sorununa iliskin bugune kadar uygulanan cozum yontemlerinin basarisiz oldugunu dusundugu (%71,1) ve siyaset kurumunun inisiyatif almasini bekledigi anlasilmaktadir. Bu cercevede toplum, TBMM'de temsil edilen partilerin cozum yonunde isbirligi yapmasinin (%59,9; 10. soru) veya hukumet ve TSK'nin elbirligiyle devletin butun kurumlarinin cozum yonunde inisiyatif gelistirmesinin (%64,5; 11. soru) gerekli oldugunu dusunmektedir. Ayni sekilde, toplumun buyuk bir kesimi, TSK'nin PKK'yi etkisiz hale getirmesinin (%55,6; 9. soru) veya PKK'nin silah birakmasinin (%51,1; 12. soru) tek basina sorunu cozmeyecegi inancindadir. Bu kesim icin Kurt sorununun cozumu, Kurt sorununun PKK disinda kalan dinamikleriyle yuzlesmekten gecmektedir. Bu da siyaset kurumuna sorumluluk dustugu anlamina gelmektedir. Ote yandan, toplumda %25-30'luk bir kesim Kurt sorununu PKK'ya indirgeyerek cozum icin askeri yontemlerin gerekliliginde israr etmekte (6,7 ve 10. sorular), %15-20'lik bir kesim de her ne yontemle olursa olsun Kurt sorununun cozulemeyecegine inanmaktadir. Bu bolumde goz ardi edilmemesi gereken bir nokta, Kurt sorununun niteligi ve muhtemel cozum yontemleri uzerinde, Turkler ile Kurtler arasinda kucumsenemeyecek farkliliklarin varligidir. Bu fark, Kurt sorununun PKK disinda kalan dinamikleri noktasinda azalirken, PKK'nin devreye girdigi noktalarda artmaktadir. Ayni sekilde, siyaset kurumunun sorumluluk almasi gerekliligi konusunda etnik kokene gore farklilik azalirken, TSK'nin sorunun cozumundeki rolu konusunda artmaktadir. Cok belirgin.

Condition: New. This book is the result of a research project born out of the need to understand the context-specific dynamics of the violent radicalization of the PKK and its urban strategy between 2015 and 2016. The aim is to explore the causes, new dynamics, and effects of PKK terrorism, and to explain the failure of its urba…n warfare tactics in Turkey. Such an exploration is timely in two significant ways. First, the Middle East is witnessing an appreciable rise in terms of the violent rhetoric and terrorist actions of certain violent terrorist organizations. While the unfamiliar dynamics of this new radical extremist trend may differ from country to country, and from region to region, the PKK case is a textbook example regarding the question of how a terrorist group devastates the daily life of ordinary people, and destabilizes the nature of the regional order. Secondly, understanding and addressing the PKK's violent tactics require comprehending how the newly emerging regional geopolitical antagonism and disorder transform the strategy of a terrorist organization, and affect the nature of the conflict, especially in the post-Arab Spring period in the Middle East.

Condition: New. This almanac provides the synopsis of bilateral relations between the US and Turkey during the past fifteen years of Ak Party rule in Turkey, starting with the March 1st crisis. During this period, Ak Party governments have engaged with different US administrations headed by the presidents from different politica…l parties (Bush, Obama and Trump) and different party majorities in the US Congress. The relationship has both undergone very serious crises and witnessed significant level of cooperation. In this almanac, the major summits and main crises that impacted the relations between the two nations are covered. It is of course impossible to cover all of the events and developments in bilateral relations, thus we aimed to be selective while still including the most important moments of the relationship in our coverage in the limited space that we have. We hope this volume can help observers and scholars in the field of US-Turkey relations and contribute to their research. Editors: Translator: 264 pages.

Especially after the discovery of hydrocarbon resources, the Eastern Mediterranean has been in the agenda of both regional and global powers. While regional actors s…uch as Egypt, Israel, and Greece are attempting political maneuvers in order to benefit from the hydrocarbon resources, international actors such as the United States and Russia have become increasingly more engaged in the affairs of the region. In response to emerging partnerships and coalitions, Turkey, which has the longest shore in the Eastern Mediterranean, has adopted a pro-active policy to defend its rights and interests. This book examines political, legal, and economic dimensions of the Eastern Mediterranean and brings a new insight to the recent developments and the Turkey's policy in the region.

The comprehensive and effective attack launched by Hamas on October 7, 2023, the al-Aqsa Flood Operation, has become a turning point not only in the PalestinianIsraeli question and the Middle Eastern balance of power but also in modern world history. Being isolated from the rest of the world, subjected to any kin…d of inhumane treatment and under a fierce blockade for 17 years, Hamas, the Palestinian resistance movement that has ruled the Gaza Strip since 2006, initiated the al-Aqsa Flood Operation and inflicted what is to date the biggest military, political, economic, social and psychological damage to Israel. Israel replied with one of the most brutal and disproportionate attacks against not only Hamas but also against the whole people of Gaza, with a population of more than 2.3 million, a large portion of which were forcefully displaced by the Zionist regime and live in refugee camps.

Condition: New. The controversial decision of U.S. President Donald Trump to formally recognize the Holy City of al-Quds (Jerusalem) as the capital of Israel overturned decades of official U.S. policy. This decision resulted in moving the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem on the eve of the Palestinian commemoration of…70 years of the Nakbah (Catastrophe) on May 15, 2018, during which Palestinians have been suffering persecutions, massacres, and ethnic cleansing. Not only is this decision against international law, but it is also in direct conflict with a number of resolutions by the UN Security Council. It brings an end to the two-state solution, which the international community has been trying to achieve for a long time. Moreover, this action is a practical step of the "Deal of the Century" which the Trump administration is trying to impose in the region. These developments require urgent publications to address different dimensions of this delicate issue, which lies at the heart of most of the regional problems. In order to develop a better understanding of this issue and other related regional problems, it is necessary to produce inclusive materials about the city. Accordingly, at this critical time, we have designed this edited book to provide a better understanding of this core issue to intellectuals, academics, politicians, and the wider public interested in the Holy Land.

Condition: New. President Erdogan's statement in March 2024, "neither the world is the old world nor Türkiye is the old Türkiye", encapsulates the essence of the Century of Türkiye vision, which aims to transform Türkiye in accordance with both internal and external requirements. Over the past two decades of AK Party rule, Türki…ye has achieved remarkable and enduring progress across its social, cultural, political, and economic spheres. Freed from various forms of tutelage, Türkiye's democracy has grown stronger, supported by well-functioning institutions. The AK Party pledges to further solidify these democratic gains by drafting a new and democratic constitution. Additionally, Türkiye has made significant advancements in its defense technology and capabilities which are essential in the face of threats posed by various terrorist organizations and the security risks from conflicts near its borders. Türkiye's regional and global significance has also grown, as it strives for "a fairer world" where human rights, freedom, and dignity are upheld without discrimination, in line with the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. As President Erdogan once declared, Türkiye's "responsibility extends beyond securing our own safety and prosperity. Our strength lies in our resources, actions, and the aid we provide to the afflicted and oppressed worldwide, beginning with our immediate surroundings". As such, the Century of Türkiye addresses a broad spectrum of domestic and international challenges, aiming for a future where Türkiye stands as a democratic, secure, and prosperous nation, exerting a constructive and influential role on the global stage.

Condition: New. What do Spider-Man, Captain America and Superman have to do with U.S. foreign policy? In The American Paradox, Kilic Bugra Kanat delivers a provocative and sweeping narrative that begins not in the halls of Washington, but in the pages of comic bookswhere the American superhero was born, burdened by the same dile…mma that has haunted the United States for over a century: Should great power be used to save others, or withheld in the name of restraint? From the isolationist roots of George Washington's Farewell Address to the firestorms of Vietnam, the unilateralism of the Bush Doctrine, and the populist backlash under Donald Trump, this book explores the evolving tension between America's desire to lead and its impulse to retreat. Through vivid storytelling and rigorous analysis, Kanat traces how each modern presidentfrom Bush to Bidenhas struggled to define America's role in a fractured, unpredictable world. At the heart of this work is a striking metaphor: the superhero's moral crisis as a mirror of the nation's geopolitical identity crisis. Like Peter Parker grappling with the consequences of action and inaction, or Superman torn between power and personal sacrifice, the United States oscillates between intervention and wary disengagement. And few symbols capture this better than Captain America, who burst onto the cultural scene punching Hitler before Pearl Harbor and came to embody a wartime moral clarity that American foreign policy would later struggle to sustain.

Condition: New. The AK Party years in Türkiye have been truly transformational. When the party was established in 2001, the country was going through major economic and political crises. Today, under the leadership of President Erdogan, Türkiye is a middle power with serious global ambitions. In the nearly two decades since its…inception, the AK Party has been confronted with major domestic and foreign policy challenges. At home, major improvements in religious freedoms, ethnic relations, and cultural rights have been realized. Abroad, Türkiye has emerged as a major power to reckon with in the region while playing a role as a critical partner in global issues. From tackling the Kurdish issue to daring to take on authoritarian regimes during the Arab Spring, the AK Party under President Erdogan's leadership has already left the most significant mark on Turkish modern political history. This volume addresses the domestic and foreign policy transformations in Türkiye that took place over the course of the past two decades under the AK Party.
